STEVE ALBRECHT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE 2006
WATER EMERGENCY AND CONSERVATION PLAN
Introduction
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the 2006 update to the City of
Prior Lake Water Emergency and Conservation Plan.
Historv
The State of Minnesota requires all City's to maintain a Water Emergency and
Conservation Plan. These plans are used by State Agencies to review the
status of municipal water systems and the emergency procedures in place to
protect them. The plans contain emergency procedure information along with
municipal pumping and water use data. In addition to historical data these
plans contain projected water use data.
Current Circumstances
Prior to approval of the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan the Met Council
required an update to the plan. This update has been submitted to the Met
Council for review. In addition to the Met Council requirements for the plan the
Department of Natural Resources is requiring that all Cities submit an updated
plan by this fall.
The plan was prepared by City staff and there is no financial impact. Failure to
update and adopt the plan could result in delays to the amendments to the
City's Water Appropriations permit.
1. Approve a resolution adopting the 2006 Water Emergency and
Conservation Plan.
2. Deny this agenda item for a specific reason and provide staff with
direction.
3. Table this item to a certain date in the future.
Sta recommends alternative number 1.
